Daily Kos: Save Our Schools March and National Call to Action

Save Our Schools March and National Call to Action

Hello,

I’m teacherken. I am a teacher who also blogs, most visibly here. I am a member of the executive committee of Save Our Schools and National Call to Action. Perhaps you have been blogging about the recent attacks on teachers and public schools. Our national grassroots movement is asking the “real” ed reform bloggers to join with us so that we can all speak with ONE VOICE all across the country during the month of March.

Our theme is “Waking the Sleeping Giant”, which was inspired by the events in Wisconsin and other places around the country. The public is finally beginning to wake up to what’s been happening for the last few years – we’re seeing evidence of this not only in Wisconsin but in places such as Seattle and Rochester.

We are asking you to keep your readers informed by mentioning our July 30 march in D.C. and by providing a link to our website in one or more of your posts during the month of March.
